Ck -- http://www.macintouch.com/pinkpismolcd.html My screen has been pink in the corners and botchy elsewhere upon starting for most of this year, but the pink disappears after a short warm-up. It hasn't affected function. I've had some dire predictions from some folks (usually the folks that do repairs and screen-changes), but haven't acted on any change yet. I intend to make a move to a newer iBook probably -- when the time is right, and I just hope that the Pismo keeps humming and defies screen demise until then. Perhaps it's worse that I know, since I'm somewhat red-green colorblind! T -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
